Grilled well, not durable
I really like this grill while it lasted. It did a really good job of cooking chicken and sausages without drying the meat out. However, after the second summer, the whole thing fell apart. All the screws came lose. The lid fell off. The wheels fell off. And the heating element no longer works. I liked this, but it was not built to last. I will stick to charcoal for my next grill so there are less things that can break

Does this grill require briquettes?
Love this grill. It's my third one. My Condo Community does not.allow gas or charcoal, so these Char Broil electric are the best! Ordered this one and no briquettes included. Does it need briquettes?

Thank you for your wonderful review. No this grill does not require briquettes.
Fine unless you need an extension cord
I’d hoped to use this on my deck, but the voltage drop from the outlet about 25 ft away (along an extension cord allowed in the manual) resulted in an inability to attain a temperature over 350 (too low to sear). So, if you need an extension cord, plan on slow cooking only. Also: took about 2 hours to put together, even though the instructions were very clear— many steps.

Completely sucks all the electricity from house
This is the worst grill. You have to have everything that’s plugged in your house turned off in order for this to get the power it needs to heat up. And then when you’re grilling as soon as you open the lid for 20 seconds all the heat is gone and it takes another 30 minutes to heat back up. Worst purchase. I reached out to the company but they won’t get back to me. It’s a complete waste of money. It cannot maintain temp while cooking and can take hours to cook something That should take 20 mins.

Waste of Money
I made a mistake buying this bbq by not listening to the reviews that say it doesn't heat up enough to properly grill. First and last electric bbq I will buy.

Great BBQ for apartments!
I purchased my Char-Broil secondhand very lightly used and love it. I live in an apartment and can’t use charcoal or gas grills so this electric grill is great. Temperatures get very high and it maintains a steady heat. I used this grill as a smoker today for some chicken and it worked wonderfully. Easy to clean, easy to use and sturdy. The unit looks very nice and classic as well. Can’t say enough good about this grill and look forward to smoking ribs and other meats in the future!
